Protequus® is a biomedical engineering and data science firm in Austin, Texas, dedicated to equine health and safety and the developers of Nightwatch®. Founded in 2013 after the sudden loss of one of his horses to colic, Jeffrey R. Schab—an accomplished equestrian and biomedical engineer—assembled a team of passionate science and technology professionals to find a solution to combat the devastating impact of colic, which claims the lives of approximately 50,000 horses each year in the U.S. and results in more than $700 million in annual losses. The Nightwatch® Smart Halter™ is an equine distress and wellness monitor that offers automated alerts and objective insight for your high-risk, pregnant, or performance horses. This all-natural leather breakaway halter is made from 1” premium appointment-quality, triple-stitched, havana-brown bridle leather with 18/8 stainless steel hardware, including a double-buckle crown and snap throat latch with rolled leather. Made for both safety and comfort, the Smart Halter™ is embedded with approximately 2.1 ounces of technology to monitor real-time data on your horse’s vital signs and behaviors; alerts you via text, phone, and email; works across 3G/cellular and Wi-Fi networks; and leverages artificial intelligence/machine learning to adapt to your horse over time for maximum precision and benefit. Access to real-time and historical information, including your horse's EDI® score, is available on-demand 24/7 from an iOS app. This patented technology (U.S. Patent Nos. 9,629,340, 9,894,885, 10,154,655; AU Patent No. 2015218807) is offered in the United States and Canada by Protequus®.
